At Fred Meyer, you really have to watch if you buy one or two cans of beer or pop from a sixpack; the scanner reads the price for the entire sixpack and the checkers almost always forget to adjust the price. They would have charged me about $11.60 for two 16 oz beers. And I dread it when there's someone in line in front of me with a bunch of coupons; there are a ton of problems/aguments with coupons.

That's odd. The UPC on the Six Pack and the UPC on the can would be different. It shouldn't bring up the Six Pack price when you scanned the can. It's got to be a data entry problem with the database. The checker shouldn't have to compute the price unless the can UPC wasn't in inventory for some reason.

Come on over! I've got beer in the fridge and I'll only overcharge you $10 for two 16 oz beers, LOL! :)
